Third-party reviews

What customers like about Samsung DW60R2014US/AA

  • Twelve place settings fit a big dinner.
  • The door opens by itself at the end of the cycle.
  • The inverter motor runs at a variable speed.
  • A half load option handles small loads.
  • Overflow protection guards against leaks.
  • A delay start can be set up to 24 h ahead.

What customers don't like about Samsung DW60R2014US/AA

  • The noise of 52 dB is clearly audible in the kitchen.
  • 2940 L of water a year adds up.
  • There is no self-cleaning filter, so it needs cleaning by hand.
  • Without Wi-Fi there is no app or remote start.

Verdict

Nightly loads suit the Samsung DW60R2014US/AA, which gives a lot of room and simple controls for a family. Twelve place settings fit a big dinner, and the door opens by itself at the end of the cycle to help the dishes dry. The inverter motor adjusts its speed during the cycle and the half load option suits small loads. Overflow protection stops leaks, and a delay start of up to 24 h helps with evening plans. The trade-off is noise: 52 dB is clearly noticeable in an open-plan kitchen. Each cycle uses 10.5 L of water and a year of use comes to 2940 L. It has no touch screen, no Wi-Fi and no voice control. It suits a household that wants a big, plain machine and does not mind some noise.
